"I thought he did a good job," coach Eric Mangini said. "I'm sure it's a little dramatic change from being home watching TV to transitioning into the game."
The playful poke was about Revis' 20-day holdout, which ended Aug. 15. While his teammates were going through two practices a day during training camp, Revis was in Phoenix trying to stay in shape.
"I wasn't in pads, but I was still working out, keeping up," Revis said.
He was expected to compete for a starting job when the Jets drafted him, and that looked less likely as his holdout wore on. Once he got to camp, Revis received a crash course in the defense and made a smooth transition, working with the starters at left cornerback while Andre Dyson and Justin Miller sat out with
injuries.
On Saturday, Revis found himself in the starting lineup against the Giants after less than a week of practices.
"It was fast," Revis said. "It's a different transition from college, but you just have to slow the game down. The schemes that we run and what we do as a team and as a defense, you just go out there and do what the coaches are teaching you."
Revis has proven to be a quick study. He had five tackles and a pass defensed against the Giants while playing left cornerback for most of the first half and a few minutes in the third quarter. Eli Manning didn't test the rookie as much as most believed he would, throwing to his side about as often as he would against a veteran.
"Yeah, I expected them to come at me," Revis said. "The coaches expected him to come at me. They were prepping me a lot. You know, they are going to come at you, you're a rookie. They are going to test you. In my mind, I just had to bring my 'A' game." Revis missed a tackle when Anthony Mix caught a 9-yard pass from Manning and eluded the cornerback. On the next play, Revis came right back and tackled Mix immediately after a 3-yard gain.
